Typo. That should have been FONT_SIZE_IN_PT = FACTOR_X * (RESOLUTION_X / DPI_X) * 72 FONT_SIZE_IN_PT = FACTOR_Y * (RESOLUTION_Y / DPI_Y) * 72 The factors above are correct though. -- Change to 13.333px is a regression for me - fonts far too large https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345189 You

This new gnome-terminal didn't change anything for me. However, I'm not sure whether the cause is that the fix is incorrect, given that, for some reason, when I move back from 10 to 13.333, this time all applications are huge, not just gnome-terminal and thunderbird. You have attached a firefox

Carlos: the value you need to move to is 13.333px ... to test gnome- terminal, please set that directly in gconf-editor as the UI fix that in gnome is missing. e.g. go to /desktop/gnome/interface/monospace_font_name and set that to Monospace 13.333px or just unset the key. ... same for the other

Look for example at Virtual Box or at Skype or even at people's statueses in Pidgin and see for yourself what you did by changing from 10 to 13.333 with default font size. This is just hilarious. I also use Ubuntu as a guest OS in Virtual Box and having to make it fullscreen to be able to just

I agree with pablomme - this is what I was implying with my question. Nothing against increasing default font sizes, at all in fact, just curious as to the rationale. But, in any case, I think pablomme is right, doesn't seem like a good idea to define the values in pixels - needs a measure that
